| Message | Let's get this out of the way, The Social Democratic Party and Social Democratic Labor Party have no direct coordination, despite similar names. On the bill itself Articles 1, 2, and 4 are too extreme for our tastes Articles 3 and 7 we can agree with Articles 5 and 6, are measures we cannot, in our right mind, support OOC: All I can really say is elections are highly competitive here, and when we lose a party that holds seats, we tend to hold new elections to get the seats filled. Also there's a large divide on the policies of the left and right wing parties, and that doesn't seem to going away no matter how many parties we lose. |
